The new department took over from the first Department of Trade and Industry DTI (1970-1974) all the former functions of the Ministry of Power wound up in 1969, with the exception of responsibilities for the iron and steel industries. The department also inherited from the Department of Trade and Industry, functions concerning atomic energy. On 11 April 1992 the majority of its functions were transferred to the second DTI, with responsibility for energy conservation being transferred to the Department of the Environment. |
